DESTROYING ANGELS.
Anarchists Striving to Get Control of the
Knights of Labor.


PHILADELPHIA, May 13th.-There is con-
siderable talk of an alleged conspiracy of
the anarchistic and socialistic element of
the Knights of Labor to depose Grand
Master Workman Powderly. 1t is claimed
that it has been known for two years that
the Socialists have been endeavoring to get
control of the Order, and Powderly has
been the strongest opponent. Even a
year ago" said leading Knight yesterday,
Powderly issued an important secret cir
cular denouncing in unmeasured terms the
Anarchists, and calling upon all good mem
bers of the Order to drive them out. He
classed the Anarchists with politicians who
sought to use the Order for personal ad-
vancement and declared that the downfall
of the Knights of Labor would date from
the time the socialistic element held SWAY.
The Anarchists even in some Eastern cities,
in acting upon the letter. denounced Pow
derly for his stand, and said he would go
before the Anarchists. They were and still
are greatly in the minority in Philadelphia.
New York. Boston, Newark and other
large manufacturing districts, and Pow
derlv was given votes of confidence by
every local assembly. 1t was different in
Chicago and the Northwest, where the So
cialists had already got foothold and con-
trolled many assemblies.

known that Lansdowne, knowing the in

THE CYCLONE PULvERIzER.--A practical
exhibition of the cyclone pulverizer was
given April 18th, in the presence of A. J.
Shaw, Manager Standard Oil Company,
Samuel Wagner, of Philadelphia and 9th
ers. Various materials were fed to the ma
chine and ground to powder. The test of
reducing twenty-five pounds of shingle
nails to powder took about ten minutes.
The machine consists of cast-iron box
containing two fan blowers, between which
the material is ted by means of revolving
screw. The fans have each two two-spo1n-
faced blades OF hardened steel and revolve
in opposite directions at a velocity of from
1900 to 3 600 revolutions per minute. The
action of the machine is by creating such
current of air as will move the materials to
be pulverized, causing them to be ground
up by Fiction Engineering Neus.

ness, but Not Fatally.
ORovILLE, May 13th.-This afternoon,
while an examination of the case of the
People VS.. William Allen, charged with
grand larceny, was progressing in Justice
Leonard's Court, and just as the testimony
was closed and Judge Hundley had risen to
address the Court, Allen suddenly arose,
pulled bulldog pistol and fired at Colonel
A. P Frary, the prosecuting witness. The
Court very suddenly adjourned. One or
two Of the witnesses seized and disarmed
Allen, and he was lodged in jail. A ex-
animation showed that Colonel Frary
escaped with slight flesh wound, the bull
let striking just below the heart and pass
ing across the breast, merely breaking the
skin. The heavy clothing through which
the ball passed no doubt checked and de-
flected It's course and saved his life. Allen
has always been regarded as harmless,
quiet man, but the charge of larceny seemed
to work greatly on him, and since the
shooting it has transpired that be had told
several parties the case would end in a
tragedy. He declared Immediately after
the shooting that his intention was to kill
both Frary and himself. After he was dis
armed he tried to persuade one of the wit
nesses to get some morphine and bring 1t

Grants Instructions to Sheridan in the
Shenandoah Valley.


UTICA On. Y, May 13th.-In view of the
severe criticisms made by General Rosser
on General Sheridan for the work he did
in Virginia during the closing days of the
rebellion, the dispatches printed below
will be of interest. They are copied from
originals, which are now in the possession
of VIM. Blaikie, of this city. They were
Transcribed into cipher and sent by S. Fl.
Beckwith, of this city, who at the tire
was in the secret service of the United
States:
CITY POINT. VA. August 16-3:30P M.-1S64
Major General Sheridan, Winchester, Va. If
you can possibly spare a division of cavalry
send them through Loudoun county to destroy
and carry off crops, animals, negroes and all
men under 50 years of age capable of bearing.
arms In this way you will get many of
Mosby's men. All male citizens under 80 can
fairly be held as prisoners OF war, and not as
citizen prisoners. If not already soldiers, they
will be made so the moment the rebe! army gets
hold of them. L. s. GRANT, Lieut.-Gen.

HEADQUARTERS ARMIES OF THE UNITED STATES,
CITY Point, VA, Sept. 4, 10 a. NJ, 1864.
Major General Sheridan Cha, lesion, Va: In
cleaning out the arms bearing community from
Loudoun county and the subsistence for armies,
exercise your own judgment as to who should
be exempt from arrest, and as to who should re-
ceive pay for their stock, grain etc. 1t is our
interest that that county should not be capable
of subsisting hostile army, and ut the same
time we want to inflict as little hardship upon
Union men as possible.
L. S. GRANT, Lieutenant General
ARMY POINT CNa.), November 1864
Major General Sheridan, Cedar Cred, Ia: Do
you not think it advisable to notify all citizens
living east of Blue Ridge TO move out north of
the Potomac all their stock, grain and provisions
of every description? There is no doubt about
the necessity ofclearing out that county, so that
it will not support the Mosby gang, and the
question is whether it is not better that the
people should save what they can. So long as
the war lasts they must be prevented from rails
ing another crop; both there and as high up the
valley as we can control I. 5. GRANT.

OPIUM AND CocAINE.-A physician of
Cairo according to Science, has been treat
ing an opium habitue with cocaine, the re-
suit being that a cocoaine habit was soon
established, the patient so enjoying the sem

use it on the slightest provocation. At one
time the amount injected hypodermically
was one and half grams daily. As re-
suit, ne suffered from a condition similar
to delirium tremens, became greatly agi-

pistol at imaginary objects, attacked his
servant, and was at last put into a hospital.
